Classics: Graduation

By the end of this week, my youngest child will have graduated from high school, and I will have hundreds of photos of the big event to put into digital scrapbooking pages. I can’t wait! And, Chelle’s Creations has my favorite kit for this theme, appropriately named Graduation, but it’s a great kit for whatever accomplishment you want to celebrate. The Chelle’s Creations CT have some great pages to show you how they chose to use this kit and the matching word art.

First, Lisa chose to combine the Graduation kit and Word Art with the Street Smarts bundle to scrap her daughter’s kindergarten graduation. I love the felt graduate she created with Chelle’s goodies. 5MayAssign1-Graduation600x600

Next, Helen chose to use the kit to accompany pictures from the prom. The gold and black colors in the kit add an elegant touch to the page. Helen-graduation

Finally, Kimberly used Graduation to scrap her daughter’s 8th grade promotion. She used the kit’s red paper and adjusted the color in Photoshop to match her daughter’s maroon school color. She also used Chelle’s Balsa Blooms {Cosmos} to add some flowers to the layout. 43676

Time for me to charge my camera batteries and find Chelle’s kit on my hard drive. Don’t have it? You can find it in her store by clicking on the linked images below. cc_graduation_kitcc_grad_wa-01

Chalked Products

When Chelle introduced her Chalked digital scrapbooking products, it was love at first sight, for me, and I know I’m not alone. Several of the CT love them as much as I do. Chelle’s Creations has at least 17 products in her store with chalked items, and the CT want to show you just several of them in use.

First, Kimberly used one of Chelle’s In the Pocket {small} templates along with Back 2 School to record memories of her daily life with the two busy teens. I love that she cut the frame off the chalkboard in the Back 2 School kit to make a card for her pocket page. That’s stretching your stash! 15822

Next, Melissa made a baby’s birth announcement to print. This would make a great gift idea for a new mom. She used the Chalked {Outline Alpha} with one of the Chalked {boards} to make this masterpiece. mm_zpse3d8dcb5

Next, Jenn used Bluebird on My Shoulder along with the Chalked InstaLife Cards, and the Chalked {bundle} to create this adorable page with some of her Instagram photos. sisters-3

Next, Heather used a Scrapping with Liz template, Chelle’s Home for the Holidays kit, and the Chalked Cards {winter}. I really like the way the chalk compliments the snowy photos.  13884336550_bb941609c1_o

Finally, Jen also used a Scrapping with Liz template and Chelle’s At the Park, Chalked {cards} and Chalked {doodads} for her cute page. I like how she cut the chalked card to fit the oval shape and didn’t feel limited by the fact that the card was rectangular originally. park-march15_zpsf8c2a183

Gallery Stand Outs | DIgital Scrapbooking Layouts

Hello Friends!

iNSD sure was a lot of fun. I was happy to look in the gallery and see layouts from some new peeps! Let me show you some new digital scrapbooking layouts.

This lovely layout is by saarmf. I like the use of the frames that don’t traditionally frame her photos.

saarmf

She used Indian Summer & Indian Summer Plaids. I always saw the “pinks” in this bundle. It’s nice to see a layout that highlights the oranges.

Next mnjenlittle used Chelle’s new Zoo Crew products to create this layout. I like the way she layered the photo’s along the horizontal plane.

Scrap Skills: Shadow Styles

If you’re a new fan to Chelle’s Creations, you might not know that she has some shadow styles in the market that can help you turn your digital scrapbooking page from good to great in one click. The product is called Me & My Shadow and it has 3 common shadow directions for a multitude of different thicknesses of items. But Chelle also has some photo frames that are fairly new to the market, and they include custom shadows that can add variety to your pages. They are Curled Frames and they include warped shadows, exactly like the shadows that would occur when a matted photo is placed on a traditional page. Let’s see what the CT has done with these products.

First, Donna used Chelle’s Choose the Right {Baptism} on a Scrapping with Liz template, and she used Me & My Shadow styles to realistically shadow the flowers, leaves, strings, and papers on her page. I love how the folded paper flower pops off the page with Chelle’s style added. web_djp332_CC_ctr_bapt_SwL_TemplateRevisited22_zpse6da7fa4

Next, Kayla used Hippity Hop Hop kit and matching alpha and the Curled Frames for her Easter photo of her daughter. The warped shadow on the photo gives a variance to the shadow that would most certainly occur if the page were a traditional paper and glue page. EasterBunnyWasHere_Apr11_we_zps48833c6e

Finally, Tammy also used Hippity Hop Hop and the alpha with Me & My Shadow on her page about four generations of her family together at Easter. As with the other pages, the flowers seem to pop off the page, and the tight shadows on the title label are the perfect thickness.4-generations

For a closer look at Me & My Shadow and the Curled Frames check out the products in the market. The images are linked.
